Yankee Philosophers.

A paragraph in the Michigan Farmer
read as follows:
A Northern gentlemen who has ira
veled extensively in the South says the
trouble there is not with the soil nor in
the climate, but the people will not
work.
Every now and then some skinned
milk Yankee discovers what ails the
South, and forthwith reads a wise lee
ture on the expedients which will lift
her out Of ignorance, barbarism and
poverty into oleomargarine progress.
The truth is the South is quite healthy
her appetite is good her digestion excel
lent. and her right arm strong enough
to dig out the wealth of coal. iron copper
and gold that lie in abundance under her
feet. She has all the business she can
attend to and is taking care of all that
comes to her. She is raising her own
bacon, grinding her own -four, spinning
her own cotton and weaving her own
cloth-and putting in ten full hours
aday and working six days out Of every
week.

Investigating the Oil Trust.

The attacks made in the courts by the
Attorney General of the State on the Oil
Trust il an interesting event. This gl-
gantic monopoly it will be remembered,
created much CONSERVATION in this section
of country when il commenced to COB
BILE up all tho cotton seed oil factories and
to control the markets for cotton seed and
their products. 1t virtually shut off all
competition. forcing down the price OF
seed and maintaining the market for oil
in its own interest. 1t now appears ac-
cOrding to the showing Of the Attorney
General, that this monster concern is not
a corporation in any legitimate and pro-
per sense. 1t is not based on any solid
grounds, but is colossal bubble repre-
scented by fictitious value and issuing
TO innocent buyers large amount of stock
for which there is no real backing. This
is what the Attorney General Of LOuisia-
ma charges against the Oil Trust, and its
real merits, whatever they may be will
have TO be brought out in the courts. In
any case this monopoly will have 70 sub
nit to an investigation, a proceeding to
which it ought not to object il it be an
honorable business enterprise.--N. 0.

Owlish Efrontery.

The Canadian Minister Of Militia, from
the depths Of his sympathetic soul re-
grets the stand taken by Congress in re-
gard to that little matter about fish down
in the neighborhoOd of Nova Scotia with
out any overdue confidence in the red
coasted raw recruits which he might lead
over into New England entertains the
hope that the good sense of the american
people will prevent the act Of Congress
from being carried into effect.
The Owlish functionnaries, pigeon
stools Of Great Britain on the American
continent, should be taught that a law
of Congress represents public opinion
until it is repealed and that the Chief
Executive is expected to give it imme-
diate effect.
Canada has invited retaliation by firing
the first shot al an American vessel, after
the passage of the law. The refusal to
allow vessel in distress to purchase ne
cessary supplies must not be tolerated
and prompt demand for reparation for
that needless insult in Order.-N. O,

An Island Of Teeth.

About four and half miles east of
Jeannerette and not more than one
and half miles from the spot where the
COnfederat. gunboat. Queen of the West
engaged the FEDERAL fleet is situated an
island, in Grand Lake, now known as
Barney's Island, named after its only
and present inhabitant, whose Occupa-
ton is fishing, and hunting alligatOrs
for their hides and oil. This island is
about two and half arpents long by one
and a half wide, and about teen feet
above the level of the lake. This is per-
haps one Of the most remarkable spots on
the continent, remarkable for its Won
derful productions, being composed en-
tirely of human teeth, occasionally fin
ding ends of leg and arm bones. A jaw
bone, perfectly preserved, 10 an earthen
vessel dug up.
The query arises. where did these mil
lions OF teeth come from? Tradition has
it that this island was the rendez-
vous, and festive ground of a savage
tribe of Indians, who would assemble
there to celebrate their victories and
feast upon their captives.
Tourists would be richly paid by Wis

An Artesian Well of Cold Air.

El Paso Special to the New York World.
About three years ago the Texas
and Pacific Railroad Company under
took to sink an artesian well o few
miles east OF Sierra Blanco, a little
hamlet % miles east OF FL Paso
The workmen put the pipe dowr
about six hundred feet. when sudden
ly an underground cavern was struck,
the drill dropped about six feet and
a current OF air rushed up the pine.
Drilling ceased and the well was aban
doned, the 600 feet OF pipe remaining
in the ground and and giving II con.
nection batween the surface OF the
earth and the strange subterrian cav
ity, q quarter of n mile beneath.
The phenomenon did not at that
time attract the attention OF any one
sufficiently interested to investigate,
Recently, however, Supt, Judy's at
tention was called to it, and his per
sonal examination and inquiries have
developed peculiar facts about the
wonderful well. Gov. Brown stopped to
see it on his way here. The peoplenear
have been in the habit OF sitting about
the well in summer to enjoy the cool in
MIGRATING air that rushes up the pipe.
The current OF AIR GIBBS and flows like
the ocean tides. From about 1918
n. IN. till 1915 p. IN. a current oil air
rushes out OF the pipe with a sound
that resembles the noise made by a
locomotive blowing of steam, and so
loud that it can be heard for forty OF
fifty yards. At 1915 p. m. the over.
flowing ceases and a strong suction
sets in which lasts for the next twelve
hours. This ebb and flow continues
day after day. 1t has been observed
by horsemen that whenever they are
i'm the neighborhood of this well
strong magnetic forces are felt, and
sparks are given off il the horses
name is touched. Recently n man
from Sierra Blanca was sitting close
TO the well, and on taking out his
pocket-knife found a nail which he
had in his pocket clinging the knife.
He held the knife in the current OF air
and found the magnetic property was
greatly increased. Several weeks ago
Supt. Jldy held his pocket-knlfe in
the current OF air for four minutes,
and the knife is still strongly mag.
netized from the effect. The outflow
ing current of air is believed to pos.
sess remarkable curative properties.
Its efficiency is to be tested by expert.
ments upon victims of paralysis and
other diseases. The people who live
near the wonderful well call it the
fountain OF Youth"

All this remained in silence.
Colin arranged that she should re

TIE SALOON IN Politics.

The Rev. William Lloyd preached sermon
on Sunday evening i'll the Central C0ngrcga-
tional Church upon drunkenness in New York.
A contemporary has since printed the Stats
tics Of arrests for drunkenness and disordcrly
conduct for the past twelve years IA n COM
mentary upon Mr.. Lloyds statements. The
preacher declared that New York was growing
in intemperance. The statistics show q
decrease in the reported arrests for intoxcation
Ii is perhaps in order to point ont that these
figures do not dsprove Mr. Lloyd's assertion.
For if the arrests for intDxication are few or,
those for alleged disorderly conduct, which in
tho majority Of cases includes drunkenness, arc
on the increase. This circumstance also sug-
gests the probability that the apparent decrease
in arrests for intoxicatlon is rather the result
of the adoption of some new classification than
Of real dimnutipn in incompetence. But in
many cases such statistics must be unreliable
because their accuracy depends upon an I'M
known quantity, which is the degree of faith
fulness with which the police perform their
duties. An apparent diminutiOn in the number
of arrests for a given offence may be attr:bat-
able either TO real decline Of criminality or
to careessness on the part of the police.
These figures therefore should not be made
the basis Of m argument.
There is however, one point as to which
there seems no doubt, and that is the increase
in the number Of saloons in this city. It's of
course possible that the number OF drinkers
does not Increase as fast as the saloons Il Ia
possible that the multiplication of the latter
only signifies sharper competition among the
saloon keepers. But it must be admitted
that as rule the growth Of supply indicates n
corresponding extension of the demand, and
that We have q right TO assume this TO be the
case here. The increase in the humber of the
saloons, moreover, has distinct and sinister
significance. apart from its connection with tho
growth of in emperances Its most evil work
is done in politics, whica 1t depraves and cor
rupts, and when the saloons arc multiplying all
about the city IL Is to be inferred that the DO .
litcal side of these places Ia being developed
and operated to the fullest extent. The Rev.
Mr. Lloyd referred especially to the work of
the saloon in politics. 1t IL true that in 80

Legislators and other people who wish to
hold correct views in regard to the Interstate
Commerce bill should study some Significant
figures and phrases given IN THE TRIBuNE's
financial columns to-day. They are from the
New-York Central and Hudson River Rail-
roads report for 1885, and they relate to the
freight traffic. 1t will be noted that y through
freight means that which 10 carried over the
whole line from Buffalo to Newly or from
New York to Buffalo, no matter what its final

Now, according to the report. the :" way
freight traffic of last year amounted to eighty
FIVE and six-tenths per cent, and the through "
to fourteen and four tenths only. In the face
of these figures does it seem likely that under
any circumstances the away" freight will be
sacrificed to the very small through" interest

This is a vigorous and successful attempt to
